The Truth Is Out There
Kawhi OUT, couldn't lay more than 7 in this game based on respect for Pop and the organisation.
SA will put up a fight for sure.
That being said if the Dubs are motivated they could win by 20+.
Both series are unprecedented. Two teams on an apparent collision course and 'Vegas' is somewhat stumped as what to do.
In the Cavs case, have never seen a 3rd Round team laying 14+.
Cavs spreads have been -3 to -5 to -14, that's insane. Books trying hard to tempt folks into the C's with that massive Game 3 spread.
Crazy stuff.

Spread high AF but it's warranted all things considered. This is true dominance.
IT pulling out was Boston waving the white flag - throwing in the towel.
Only a lazy approach from the Cavs will prevent it from covering.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it approach.
Basically only a handful of teams have been asked to lay 15+ in the playoffs over the past 10 seasons,
Those teams are 4-0 ATS winning by an average of 25 points.
Most recent being the Spurs who laid -18 vs the Grizz last season, they won by 26.
Did expect the total to be a lot lower with no IT, 216 seems a little high.
Cramps still seems focused and threw down some more shade at his league counterparts earlier today when asked about IT...
"It doesn't change our approach," James said. "We hate that Isaiah got hurt. Salute to him on an unbelievable season.
What he was able to accomplish this year and the things that he did in the postseason,
under the circumstances with the tragic death of his sister.
But for us as a unit, it's never been about one guy.
That's not our focus. It's always been about team effort and how we can put out the best game plan to go against their team.
And they're still well coached.
They still got players out there that are going to look for the challenge and are going to step up their play, so we have to be ready for that."
James bent over to rap his knuckles on the court when he reminded reporters,
that he has never missed a playoff game in 209 chances.
"I've never missed a postseason game in my career," James said.
"I contribute that to me taking care of my body, me putting in the work and me being on top of my game."

Cavs 2-0 in this series winning by an average of 28.5 points and that was in Boston.
To try and find excuses to bet the Celtics in this spot is not being sharp whether it wins or loses.
In fact it's 'squarer' to take the points.
Relying on some league 'fuckery' or the Cavs taking it easy.
A game to avoid or eat the chalk, imo.

Thanks Cog.
Better team in a closeout game is always the play.
Dubs 2-0 SU and ATS in road closeout games this season winning by an average of 25.5 points.
Dubs 5-1 SU and ATS overall in road closeouts.
It's all about rest this season, Dubs win tonight and get 9 days off.
Chance to rest, cure any ailments and face the Cavs at peak health.
Last postseason they only had 2 days off prior to playing the Finals.
Opportunity for them to 1-up the Cavs after LeCramps being the good 'company man' he is,
Decided to take the game off in the 2nd half and lose to Boston.
Means the NBA gets a game to make the break from Round 3 to the Finals less than a week and that's if the Cavs even win the next 2 games.
Maybe the ECF's go 6.
This series though, is over.

Celtics caught lightning in a bottle last game, odds of all those crazy intangibles occurring again is pretty slim.
Remembering the C's were getting dismembered in the 1st half before the Cavs' shit went stale and all hell broke loose.
Cramps saves face here and gotta believe the C's just won their Finals in a single game and will still have that sheen on their ass.
This is gonna be a 187 on the Shamrocks.

Well, kudos to Brad Stevens for having his team up for this game after Game 3's heroics. That says something.
Thought they'd be flat as hell.
Lue showing us yet again that he can't coach and he only goes as far as LeBron can carry him.
Not shocked because it's the Cavs and they've fucked me numerous times with their questionable efforts since Cramps returned.
Will see what's there in the 2nd half and how it pans out.

And Cleveland was going to rape Boston by 40 in games 3 and 4.
Shit's never explainable. Nothing will surprise.

Simple and straight forward.
Playing the better team in a closeout game, especially a road closeout game.
Approached this round about as square as I could with the Cavs shitting in my scrambled eggs in both their games at home.
But Cramps likes to go HAM in Bawstin. Should be another big win on the road.
Found a 9.5 but no harm in a 10, spread will fluctuate tomorrow being game day but will trust the early movement.
Cavs can't afford to piss around so they can get as healthy as possible during the 6 days they'd have off should they finish the task in Game 5.

Of course, James was sick in Game 3. Why didn't I think of this....

LeCramps 8-1-1 ATS as road chalk of 5 or more in the playoffs winning by an average of 12.1 points in his career.
Dude on a 6-0 ATS run in this spot winning by an average of 12.7 points.
Celtics 0-5 ATS as a home dog in the playoffs under Steven's tenure losing by an average of 16 points.
